"Hello Madeline," Hydro replied, then to Monroe "Do you know anyone that could teach me then? You seem to know the area." he sat up a little hoping that she could direct him to a teacher.

"Well... Not really. Truth be told, I was in Luna Grove for quite a bit now. I don't know that many foxes... Let alone mentors, sorry." She lowered her head apologetically, "You can come along with us, though! By us I mean... Well... Riima and I, maybe Madeline?"
A rustle could be heard in the nearby bushes. A slight glint of silver could be seen every now and then. The rustling circled the group of foxes two times and settled down.

"Ohh," said Hydro disappointed that Monroe didn't know someone to teach him then noticing her invitation, he brightened and replied "Sure! I haven't had a traveling companion for quite a while!"

"Alright then!" Monroe smiled, "Gonna be kinda hard now, traveling around with three... Maybe four foxes..." She glanced at Madeline when she said four, the fox was a bit defensive earlier. Hearing something nearby, Roe crouched down once more, searching for the source, "I think somethings here..."
A pair of sienna eyes gazed out, taking in the scene in the clearing. He was discovered. Kenan braced himself, the female looked quite serious. Maybe he should have gone up to them and introduced himself propertly, but he would be lying if he called himself outgoing. He certainly wasn't a liar.

Seeing Monroe tense Hydro looked around sharply. "What's wrong?" he asked Monroe quietly. Almost unconsciously he had tensed also and was in a fighting stance.

Riima stood straight now, sitting beside Monroe. She looked towards the source of the noise. "The forest is kinda dangerous Roe." She whispered into Monroe's ear.

Monroe took a hesitant step towards the bushes. This was Coonau forest, not Rendigger's. It couldn't be too bad...
Kenan gathered up his courage and jumped out of the bushes just as Roe was making her way there. He nearly rammed into her and seemed to have startled her a tad. 'Oh boy, wasn't intending this to happen....'
Monroe, in shock, scrambled back to stand by Riima and crouched low, jaws bared, a low growl emerging from her throat. She would fight if needed, to protect Riima.

Hydro looked at the newly arrived fox. He crouched a little lower, ready to fight if his newfound friends were in danger. He hoped he wouldn't have to though, he had only basic training in fighting, hence looking for a teacher.

"Eheh..." Kenan was left speechless, what a predicament. He hadn't expected the attention to shift to him so suddenly. But of course he had, jumping out like that, what was his problem? He took a deep breath of air, "H...Hi! I... I'm Kenan." Who'd like a stammering bloke like himself? He was surely thought a fool now.
"Oh..." Monroe uttered, sitting down. 'What a predicament... I must've looked like a complete fool. Ofcourse, this is Coonau. Coonau forest is 'most harmless!' While she had her internal conflict, she completely forgot about Kenan's introduction and hadn't replied with her own.

Hydro relaxed hearing the shy introduction. "I'm Hydro and, umm Monroe what are you doing?" he asked seeing the spaced look on her face.

Riima was terrified by this newcomer. She soon regained her composure and rolled his eyes at the silver fox. Glancing at Monroe, seeing her spaced out, she giggled a bit. "Hello there, I'm Riima," she said, looking back at the silver male.

"Well, Hi there." Good, Kenan's stammering had ceased. "Sorry I startled you, I just... Didn't really know how to approach you all and... Well... Guess I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time, eh?" He smiled, they looked friendly.
Monroe, finally realizing that she had spaced through the introductions, straightened her posture and gave the silver fox a warm smile. "I'm Roe." Hopefully noone else had introduced her while she was out of it, that would be quite embarassing.

Riima sighed sitting down on the grass again. She seemed to do that a lot, just sit down and watch whats going on around her, not really involved in the other fox's activities.

Hydro laughed "It appears so Kenan. What are you doing might I ask? I'm looking for a teacher, someone who knows the fighting and healing arts. Or two different people who know one or the other." he settled back down on the grass.

"Sorry, I don't know much of either. I'm a lover, not a fighter." Kenan smiled and nodded, "But I'm an excellent navigator! Just... Hesitant at times." Another smile, this one slight and sheepish.
Monroe turned her attention to Riima while Kenan conversed with Hydro. "So... We never really got to finish talking back when we first got here!" She recalled the sudden interception supplied by Hydro. "Looks like you'll be like that your whole life, huh?"
